Two thousand Wales AAM supporters marched through Cardiff demanding that the British government impose sanctions against South Africa on 27 June 1986. The march followed a report by the Commonwealth Eminent Persons Group mission to South Africa that concluded that Commonwealth countries should impose sanctions. It was timed to coincide with the AAM Festival of Freedom in London the following day.
